Hello Everyone

We are visiting Sydney in October this year and looking for a Hotel which is very close to Sydney Airport as my Husband is a very keen Aircraft spotter and hopes to be close enough to the Airport so he can walk there to take photos.

Have been told the Stamfold Plaza Hotel is the closes to the Airport, therefore could anyone confirm this and would there be transport close by ie: bus service into the centre of Sydney so that I can do the tourist places while my husband Aircraft spots at the Airport.

Thank you and would be interested to hear from anyone with details on hotels close to Airport.

and the trains go from the domestic and international terminals every 10 minutes to CBD There is a station at Mascot I do not know about buses sorry . Suggest you google Airport link Sydney to see train maps and info .
The hotels also have own websites but try wotif.com or needitnow .com.au or standbyrates.com.au for cheaper accomodation rates I have used all these sites to book rooms over internet .
Hope this info helps enjoy your visit.

I just put Sydney airport hotels into google and it comes up with a range of websites which show maps .prices transport etc so have a look through some of them eg

Hotel Ibis Sydney Airport is located 1 km from the domestic and 3 km from the international airport.

Ibis is just 20 minutes drive from the CBD, with the local train station, Mascot, a 5 minute walk away.
from all this info you should be able to make some decisions .

Welcome to VT kiwispotter. Why don't you stay in the city where you can see the sights and get your husband to catch the bus to the airport ;-)

Thank you for all your help, this is the first time I have used the Virtual Tourist forum, you have been of great help. The main reason for visiting Sydney is for my husband to do his Aircraft Spotting.We did the same last year we had a long weekend in Amsterdam , He was at the Airport all the time Aircraft spotting and I saw Amsterdam, A lovely city.This was just one of many Airports we visited during our holiday to UK and Amsterdam. Yes he is a very keen Aircraft spotter!
Thanks once again.
